If you were hoping the weather forecast may have changed for this Memorial Day weekend, here's some disappointing news.

It hasn't.

The National Weather Service in Morristown still predicts rain for Knoxville this weekend. Possible showers and thunderstorms are starting this evening and could continue through Thursday.

Most of the rain on Memorial Day will be happening after 3 p.m., according to the NWS, and dying off by around 9 p.m.

Meanwhile, the NWS says Subtropical Storm Alberto has the potential to bring occasional heavy rainfall to East Tennessee starting on Tuesday and lasting through Thursday, which has the potential of causing some brief flooding in the area.
